Re: Native version of GNAT Programming Studio for OSX

Some hours and packs of unhealthy food later:

I managed to build an app bundle!

Download link is contained in the readme [1], be sure to read the 
important stuff before you try to launch this thing. Do not try it out 
if you use AdaCore's gps binary for anything serious - it might screw 
up your configuration at ~/.gps! You need to have GNAT GPL 2013 
installed in /usr/local/gnat to be able to launch this (bleeding edge 
constraint, will be fixed later. probably).

The most important feature compared to AdaCore's binary is probably the 
ability to use the command key for keyboard shortcuts, because nobody 
uses Ctrl+C on a Mac. I patched this into the source and this is what 
screws up the configuration when it's used together with the original 
gps.

I wrote more about the status of the app bundle in the "Known issues" 
section in the readme. I built this bundle on one of my Macs and tested 
it on the other one, and would be glad if anyone else can confirm it to 
be working. ("tested" as in "started it and saw that it didn't crash")
